King Jing completely trusted Li Yu, but it was very important to manage the locust plague. King Jing paused, holding Li Yu's hand, his eyes worried, as if asking him, are you sure?

Li Yu smiled and said, "Yes. But the methods may not be very decent."

King Jing is indifferent. He is more worried about the safety of plum fish than whether he can stop the locust plague. Generally, people control locusts by burning with fire. Although it can burn a lot of insects at a time, there is a danger of burns near fire. Fish are carp essence, so they are afraid of fire, right?

Li Yu saw his concerns and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, I won't go into battle myself."

In other words, it is not him who is going to battle, hey, don't think of him as a powerful fairy who can call the wind and rain, he is just a systematic fish, and he himself is afraid of bugs!

King King Xu Xu looked at Li Yu and saw that he was really not joking, so he nodded and allowed him to try.

Li Yu asked for paper and pen, and wrote a few in one breath. It was a coincidence. Before Li Yu wore the book, some countries in the world were plagued by locusts. His country gave some help. Li Yu was curious. Next, I roughly studied how to control the locust plague. Although I don't remember all of them, I found it very interesting, and some of them are still fresh in my memory.

They are deep ploughing, grain selection, and duck army.

King King:?

Li Yu tried his best to explain for him in a way that the ancients probably understood: "Deep ploughing means that the locust eggs originally grew in the soil. When plowing, the soil is turned as deep as possible, and the eggs will be exposed to the sun. Next, I will...be scorched to death by the sun."

"Choosing food means that not all crops are eaten by locusts. If there are a variety of foods that locusts do not eat, then there will be less food available for locusts, and naturally they will not make trouble."

Jing Wang is smart, and he can do it at one point. Both of them are really interesting.

King King's gaze fell on the third one, what is the duck army? Is it the one he thought...duck?

"His Royal Highness is right." Li Yu blinked, "The so-called one thing is more than one thing, ducks can eat locusts. The first two, for the locust plague, it should be too late, your Highness can now get more Duck, to relieve the urgent need, this is called... the duck army."

King King: "..."

King Jing frowned. What Xiaoyu said, especially the duck army, was unheard of.

But Xiaoyu's words sounded very reasonable, at least not with fire, and there was no life-threatening, King Jing slowly nodded.

Some families in Luofeng Town raise ducks, but they are not many. They were originally used for selling money and eating them themselves.

King King ordered Wang Xi to buy a few. If ducks can eat locusts, just give it a try.

Wang Xi took the job personally, and went there before dawn. He ran back within an hour and said in excitement, "Your Majesty, it's really useful! The old slave saw it with his own eyes, as soon as a few ducks landed. After eating a lot of locusts, the old slave has been eating since he went to come back, without stopping!"

Wang Xi was anxious to return to report the letter, and happily ran off one of his shoes.

According to Wang Xizhi's words, a duck ate a hundred or so in one go. King Jing made a rough estimate, and he was a little excited.

At this time, if you report back to the emperor first, and the Ministry of Household allocates funds to buy ducks, you will come and go, I am afraid the locust plague will be more serious.

King Jing needed this opportunity to make Wang Xi let go of his hands and feet, and with the money of King King's Mansion, he first bought all the live ducks in Xifeng. If the whole Xifeng was not enough, he sent people to the nearest state and county to buy it.

Li Yu gave another idea: "His Royal Highness, don't just buy big ones. You can also buy some ducklings to raise them. You can set up a place to raise ducks. The ducks grow fast and can catch up with the locust plague!"

King Jing's heart moved, this was also a way, and Wang Xi followed suit.

A duck is not expensive. King King has money. The people in Luofeng Town feel that King King has repelled the bandits and learned that King King wants to buy ducks. Anyone who has ducks at home rushes to send them. Not accepted. In the neighboring counties, I heard that King Jing bought ducks to control locusts, so he was curious, and he also showed up in a crowd, sending a group of ducks to Luofeng Town.

King Jing ordered the guards to respond along the way to ensure the safety of the people on the way. They were also afraid of the bandits taking advantage of the fire. However, the bandits heard that King King wanted to control the locusts and waited to see King King’s excitement.

Wang Xi quickly gathered 5,000 live ducks and nearly 1,000 duckling cubs.

The ducklings still need to be fed, and the live ducks formed a duck army, rushing to the worst-hit towns.

King Jing also went there personally. After one day, he had a gratifying result. The duck army can really eat. A small group of ducks can eat almost the same amount of locusts on an acre of land in just half a day.

In the past, the common people’s headache was that locusts did not live long. Even if the idea was burned out, they would grow up quickly and could cause fires. Now there is no need to worry about them. Ducks can eat for a few days without stopping. Other risks, and the damage is extremely low, when the locusts in a town are almost eaten, the duck army only loses less than 10%.

The duck is really an amazing soldier, Jing Wang smiled and compared his thumbs to Li Yu, and continued to make Wang Xi go around to buy ducks.

However, there were some accidents in the second acquisition. Wang Xi discovered that some merchants had learned that they needed ducks, so they had bought a lot from farmers at low prices in advance, and reselled them to Wang Xi at high prices.

Wang Xi was so angry that he reported to King King’s office. Li Yu himself didn’t expect this kind of problem. After all, it’s fair to say that it’s okay to farm the water and grain. The palace spends money to buy ducks to treat the locust plagues for the people. There are people who make this kind of black-hearted money without their conscience. If the locusts eat up all the food, where can they eat?

Really, if you give three times the profit, you don't even want to die.

King Jing had long been thinking about it, and he glanced at Wang Xi lightly, so that Wang Xi remembered who they were, and asked them to ignore it.

Wang Xi didn't buy many ducks this time, and was worried that he would miss the business, but Jing Wang was quite confident.

Should I buy chicken? King Jing looked at Li Yu.

"Chickens are fine! But chickens can't eat ducks..."

Li Yu nodded quickly, His Royal Highness even knew this!

As long as King Jing can eat locusts, Wang Xi also ordered some chickens. On the other hand, the duck farm set up by Li Yu, King King also managed it and hired a few brave duck farmers. With locusts as the feed, the ducklings grow up extremely fast. Just when the duck army in front is about to be blue and yellow, the ducklings have grown up, and the duck army has laid many duck eggs.

Li Yuxi said: "Fortunately, Your Royal Highness bought a lot for the first time, so I can continue to buy it now!"

Wang Xitang is a maid-in-chief in the palace. These days, he is just buying chickens, ducks and hatching eggs. King Jing smiled confidently and took the latter's related matters. His Royal Highness also knew well about hatching eggs.

As for those who had live ducks, they couldn't wait until the royal palace purchased them at a high price.

Ducks are living creatures. They are no more than grain. They just need to be piled up in a warehouse. They have to be fed and taken care of. If they are careless, they will starve to death, and many escape.

Seeing that King King's Mansion no longer buys ducks, he is dumbfounded by the ducks. What should I do with so many ducks? But apart from King King's Mansion in Xifeng, who can afford so many ducks at once?

These people were afraid of losing money, and later made a special trip to find Wang Xi to apologize. Wang Xi was reminded by King Jing that his waist was so straight that he just pressed down the price and blasted out the bones and scum of these people, finally lower than the market price. It took a lot to collect these ducks.

The duck army and duck farm have been operating normally. Li Yu visited the duck farm run by King King, and went around everywhere, and made a lot of opinions from the eyes of modern people. He felt that the duckling cubs in the duck farm were a bit cute, so he asked two Huang Chengcheng on a whim. The little ducklings were also raised in their yard.

The fish cubs saw the fresh ducks they had never seen before, and they were as excited as the fish daddy. The crystal bottle could hardly be closed to them. Not only Dabao, but even Sibao, a little confused, were eager to try.

Li Yu was afraid that the ducklings would eat the small fish, so he refused to allow the fish cubs to come close, so they only allowed them to take a long look.

Sibao likes beautiful little ducks very much. Once when Li Yu was taking a nap, he sneaked out of the crystal bottle and wanted to look for the little ducks.

Speaking of siesta, it is actually a habit that Li Yu has developed after giving birth to small fish cubs. It is said that people sleep more and develop well when they are young. Li Yu thinks that fish cubs can also sleep more and accompany a few small fish at one point every day. The fish cubs take a nap together.

The fish cubs are all lively and active. When Li Yu wakes up, they obediently get into the aquatic quilt with Li Yu. As soon as Li Yu falls asleep, the fish cubs get out of the quilt and play separately.

The four treasures and a fish just jumped out of the crystal bottle. Thanks to King Jing's foresight, he spread a thick blanket on the ground just in case, and the Four Treasures fell on the ground without being injured.

But the Four Treasures are still just a small fish with a big palm. He completely forgot to leave the crystal bottle and fish tank. He couldn't move a bit. Soon after landing, he felt uncomfortable.

Dabao, Erbao and Sanbao all swam to the edge of the crystal bottle, watching the Sibao anxiously.

Brother is in danger!

Dabao jumped out desperately, followed by Erbao and Sanbao, they all wanted to help Sibao.

As a result, there was only one fish cub in the Four Treasures that was fluttering, and then all four fish cubs flicked their tails.

Li Yu just took a nap, and from time to time he woke up to look at the little fish cubs. After a while, he noticed that the fish cubs jumped out of the crystal bottle one after another. Li Yu was so scared to death, he quickly brought the fish cubs back.

Sibao was frightened and clung to Li Yu.

Li Yu was both angry and distressed, and it was hard to blame this confused and confused cub. He fed Sibao some fish food and wanted to transfer Sibao's attention.

Unexpectedly, Sibao ate fish food while still clinging to him.

Li Yu: "..."

Li Yu wanted to know what happened to the Four Treasures, teasing the Four Treasures to speak, and the Four Treasures said in a vague way: "Daddy, I want a duck!"

Li Yu guessed that the Four Treasures wanted to see a duck, but only fell to the ground.

Why do Sibao like ducks so much?

Li Yu thought for a while, smirked and took Sibao to see the grown-up duck. Sibao saw with his own eyes that his mouth had grown a lot longer than when he was a child, and his neck had become long and curved, tall and fat. Duck, think about the fluffy cute little duck again, crying.

After Li Yu bullied the Four Treasures, he went to bully Dabao again.

Dabao was unable to save him as a younger brother, but he and the other two younger brothers fell to the ground. Dabao realized that he had done something wrong. As soon as Li Yu came to look for him, he took the initiative to say to Li Yu: "Father, I know I was wrong. "

In fact, Li Yu, who loves to stroll, said, "Oh, what's wrong with Dabao, let me tell you about it?"

"Yes... I am too weak to bring my brother back."

Dabao was a bit wronged, and a bit embarrassed.

Li Yu:? ? ?

Son, you'll wake up soon, isn't your fault too weak?

Dabao didn't know what the fish daddy was saying, and said seriously: "I want to be the most powerful fish, to protect my brother, and protect my father!"

Li Yu: "..."

Li Yu seemed to see the great passion behind Dabao. Really, it was obviously a small fish cub hatched from the same wave of fish eggs. The Four Treasures were unsatisfactory, but Dabao could clearly express a long list of wishes!

"Dabao is a good boy." Li Yu rubbed him comfortably with his fins, and then said: "But remember to do what you can."

Dabao:?

What does it mean to do what you can!

Li Yu taught him: "It is to wait for Dabao to grow up to protect his father and brother."

Dabao nodded as if he didn't understand, "Then Dabao must grow up quickly."

Li Yu: "..."

Emma, ​​although I think it's a bit exaggerated, but why is it so warmed by Dabao inexplicably!

Thanks to the efforts of the Duck Army, the momentum of the western locust plague has been brought under control. Although there are still repetitions in some areas, according to the current combat power of the Duck Army, I believe that it will not take long for the locusts to be completely wiped out.

However, since locusts have been wiped out this year, we cannot easily relax our vigilance in the future. Locust disaster treatment will mainly lead to recurrence. But now that there is a magical method for locust treatment, it doesn’t matter if we get up again in the future. People in Xifang will start to raise more if they have the conditions. A few ducks.

I heard that ducks are a good thing. Not only can they sell money, they can eat meat, but they can also kill locusts!

The last pile of ducks who eat locusts and eat the fat duck army is quite a headache.

Li Yu's eyes lit up when he saw so many ducks, remembering what he had sucked, and said to King Jing, "His Royal Highness, or let's eat roast duck!"

King King: "..."

King Jing ate the cucumber taken by Li Yu himself, and he was a man who could not change his color and heartbeat. What was it to eat a mere roast duck?

King Jing nodded, and Xifeng Quanjude had a prototype.
